I hope it is okay to tag onto this thread.
Officials are needed all over the entire state. It takes some time to get comfortable on the mat and to get known but the rewards are worth it.
Without new officials coming in, we will likely be in the situation Michigan is where they have had to cancel events because there are not enough officials in the state.
If you are a former wrestler, especially if you are in college, and you love your sport please consider giving officiating a try.

It s so hard to say yes when the rules are sometimes on refs discretion. Refs do not have an easy job especially when two kids are really good and it's a close match. There are some really bad refs out there that's for sure but it is what it is.

My request is for individuals to come join the discussion of rules and the cognitive level which we attempt to operate at in all level matches. Join the crew, sign up for the Cincy class and enjoy the competition close up.
